Revolver World, Coffee Co-op

Revolver Coffee Co-operative is based in the midlands and is a sister company to Revolver records, a long established indie record label. The record label started out in the 1970’s and they have remained true to their independent roots.

In 2007 the group became progressively interested in the fairtrade movement and after becoming frustrated with the high prices and lack of variety in the marketplace, decided to take action.

Today, Revolver World exists in its own right as a company producing and distributing Fairtrade accredited, coffee, organic clothing and other products to a variety of retailers and individuals.

They are a multi stakeholder community co-operative and membership is open to all, including suppliers from coffee growing co-operatives around the world. 25% of their profit is reinvested into producer’s communities in order to improve their lives through improved health and education.

Revolver supply Unicorn with Colombian and Cuban coffee. The Colombian beans are produced by farmer members of the Cooperative de Caficultores de Anserma. In Cuba, the coffee comes from a group of two hundred farmers around the Sopapo-Mayari plateau of Cuba’s Cuatro Vientos region. Solidarity in co-operation is one of Unicorn’s principles and sourcing from retailers such as revolver is where our passion lies.
